The Heartthrob Protagonist Just Wants To Monopolize Me

Zhou Mei and Zhou Tao, who should have died a long time ago, returned to Jiaoye Village in good health, but the whole village fell into the haze of ghost knocking on the door.

Ji Mingxia just suspected that Zhou Mei and Zhou Tao used the lifespan in the village to prolong his own life, but unexpectedly, he met Zhou Mei and Zhou Tao and moved today.

Ji Mingxia's first reaction was that it was a man-made coincidence, probably a deception.

But the movers who came in and out not far away didn't look like they were in disguise.

"My mother's cancer has relapsed and needs treatment. My father and I have to take care of her." Zhou Tao said, "I don't know what's going on with my disease. If it happens, I need to be treated in time, so we decided to close the door temporarily and leave the village. , and come back when you recover.”

Zhou Tao said, playing with the copper coin bracelet hanging on his wrist: "How about you, how did you do in the college entrance examination?"

"It's not bad. I've performed about the same as usual, and the score hasn't come out yet." Ji Mingxia glanced at his bracelet, and said to Zhou Tao, "When I came back yesterday, I saw that your supermarket was fine. I'm going to move out, I haven't heard any news before..."

"It's not a good thing, and there's no need to let the whole village know about it." Zhou Tao said, "I didn't expect to meet you before I left. Would you like to come to my house?"

Ji Mingxia glanced at the supermarket not far away, and then at Zhou Tao.

Zhou Tao was turning his face slightly, keeping his eyes on an unknown direction, while the other eye was on Ji Mingxia, waiting for his reply.

Ji Mingxia pondered for two seconds, and finally said: "Okay."

Zhou Tao led Ji Mingxia to the small supermarket. It was noon and the sun was clear, which was the hottest time of the day, but the closer to the small supermarket, the lower the temperature.

It's okay at the entrance of the small supermarket, the sun is shining, and the people who come and go are sweating profusely to clean up the supermarket, but it's not so obvious.

But when he entered the small supermarket, Ji Mingxia only felt a puff of turbid air rushing towards him. The whole small supermarket seemed to be shrouded in gray smog, and there was a damp coolness in the coldness.

Ji Mingxia rubbed his arms unconsciously, turned to look at Zhou Tao, only to find that Zhou Tao had been looking at him.

Zhou Tao stood beside Ji Mingxia, his face was facing forward, but because of his squint, his eyeballs could be skewed to a very corner position.

Ji Mingxia turned his head to look, and saw Zhou Tao's crooked eyeballs falling on him, and saw that Ji Mingxia realized that he was peeping, and then slowly turned back. Immediately afterwards, Zhou Tao turned his head, looked at Ji Mingxia with a smile and said: " The air conditioner is too low, it's a bit cold, you sit down first, I'll pour some hot water for you."

Ji Mingxia just wanted to refuse, but Zhou Tao walked away without any explanation.

The supermarket was being cleaned up, and the surroundings were in a mess. Zhou Tao walked around a shelf and disappeared in an instant, leaving Ji Mingxia standing alone.

Seeing this, Ji Mingxia didn't sit down, but walked around the supermarket.

The atmosphere in the supermarket was very cloudy, and the ring on Ji Mingxia's ring finger kept flickering red, but from the beginning to the end, Ji Mingxia didn't find any trace of the ghost.

In desperation, in the end, Ji Mingxia could only fix his gaze on a wall.

People who do business are more superstitious, and they always have to enshrine something at home to feel at ease.

Ji Mingxia is from a small place and grew up in a village, so he is not surprised by these things.

According to Ji Mingxia's understanding, the second master Guan is enshrined in most people's homes.

Guan Erye is in charge of the God of Wealth, who is most suitable for doing business and has a lot of money. However, because the God of Wealth has a certain evil spirit, he is usually enshrined in a position facing the outside of the door or window, so that the evil spirit can be dissipated, and it will attract wealth and not disaster.

But this small supermarket is the exact opposite.

First of all, the statue it enshrines, although it is dressed up by Guan Erye, has the appearance of the God of Wealth.

White face and black beard, wearing green and red, holding a chain of copper coins in his hand.

The chain is extremely long, stretching from the statue's hand down, wrapping around the feet of the statue, with the end pointing straight ahead, as if the chain will bind the worshiper in the next moment.

The statue is placed in the supermarket in the darkest and most corner position, at the same height as people, not to mention that the light from outside cannot come in, even if there is light in the room, when people stand in front of the statue, no matter how they stand, the shadow will always be visible. Strictly block the statue.

Even ordinary people would find this statue weird, not to mention that Ji Mingxia's eyes could see things that ordinary people couldn't see.

The entire small supermarket is filled with yin, and this statue is the place with the heaviest yin.

At this moment, Ji Mingxia looked at the statue, and the statue stood there quietly, as if he was also looking at Ji Mingxia.

Ji Mingxia took a closer look, and suddenly found that the eyes of the statue were slightly crooked.

It has been looking forward with one eyeball, and the other eyeball is slightly raised. The face made of porcelain has a gray and cold tone. Not only does it not have the righteousness of a god, but it looks like a ghost crawling out of the underworld.

A ray of light suddenly flashed in front of the statue, as if the statue rolled its eyes and looked at Ji Mingxia suspiciously!

Startled, Ji Mingxia took a step back, but accidentally bumped into the person behind him.

He turned his head abruptly, and saw Zhou Tao standing behind him for an unknown how long.

Seeing Ji Mingxia looking at him in surprise, Zhou Tao handed him a glass of water and said apologetically, "Sorry, I scared you."

"It's okay." Ji Mingxia quickly straightened his expression, seeing Zhou Tao bringing water to him, Ji Mingxia took it as if nothing had happened, but he didn't intend to drink it.

"This is the Longevity Lord of our family. Before my mother went to the hospital, she specifically confessed that I should take it away in person. I can't be negligent in the slightest. When I finish packing, I have to hold it and set off." Zhou Tao said, "That's right. Ming Xia, can I ask you to do something for me?"

"What's the matter?" Ji Mingxia's heart skipped a beat, and he asked calmly.

"Auntie Cheng ordered a bag of seafood from me yesterday, and it will arrive in the evening. The driver of the truck is in a hurry and must play in the evening. I'm afraid I can't deliver it to her. Can you help me collect the goods and deliver them to her?" Is it Aunt Cheng's house?" Zhou Tao said, "My store was closed in a hurry, this is the last order, I hope she can be satisfied."

"Aunt Cheng?" Ji Mingxia was a little surprised.

Zhou Tao said again: "If it's inconvenient for you, forget it. I'll come back tonight and deliver it to her myself."

Ji Mingxia thought for a while, and said, "Yes, I will deliver it for you."

"Thank you so much!" Zhou Tao suddenly showed a bright smile on his face, matching his distorted face, it was very weird.

Although Zhou Tao's supermarket is not big, it has a variety of goods, and it took a whole day to complete from inventory to removal.

Ji Mingxia saw him rushing in and out. When the small supermarket was completely emptied and the back of the truck was closed, Zhou Tao walked into the small supermarket and took the statue away.

The wooden niche of the statue was black, and Zhou Tao placed it squarely in front of his chest. At first glance, it looked like he was holding a strange portrait rather than holding the wooden niche of the statue.

"I'm leaving, wish me luck." Zhou Tao said to Ji Mingxia before getting into the car.

"I wish you a smooth journey." Ji Mingxia said.

Zhou Tao seemed to understand the meaning of Ji Mingxia's blessing, and smiled meaningfully at Ji Mingxia: "Looking forward to meeting next time."

With that, he climbed into the van.

The truck started "buzzing", and as Zhou Tao and the idol left, it seemed to carry away the cold air of the small supermarket.

It was approaching evening at this time, and the setting sun slanted down, making the whole village quiet and warm.

Even so, Jiaoye Village was still deserted, no different from when Ji Mingxia came yesterday.

Ji Mingxia looked around.

As the only small supermarket in the village, Ji Mingxia didn't see any villagers from Jiaoye Village participating in the Zhou family's move of goods.

Not to mention going forward to ask, there are not even people passing by.

After Zhou Tao's truck left, Ji Mingxia found that there were actually quite a few residents standing on the second floor of their homes, silently watching him leave.

Their evasive behavior further confirmed Ji Mingxia's guess.

The Zhou family has a problem, and the villagers in the whole village know it.

However, they did not leave Jiaoye Village and tolerated the Zhou family's existence.

But at this moment, when they found that the Zhou family had left, all the villagers watched quietly, but there was no look of joy on their faces.

Why is this, is it because they are worried that Zhou's family members will come back after recovering in the hospital?

Thinking this way, Ji Mingxia lowered his head and looked at his fingers.

Zhou Tao left with that weird statue, and the small supermarket was no longer gloomy. At first glance, Jiaoye Village seemed to have broken free from the haze and returned to the sunshine.

However, at this moment, Ji Mingxia's ring was still emitting a faint red light.

Seeing this, Ji Mingxia lowered his eyes and hid the expression on his face.

Zhou Tao said that the seafood delivery person would arrive at five o'clock, and Ji Mingxia waited for about half an hour before seeing the courier deliver a foam box.

When he saw that it was Ji Mingxia who received the goods, the courier was stunned for a moment: "Are you Ji Mingxia?"

"Well, I am." Ji Mingxia said.

The expression on the courier's face was very subtle. After handing over the foam box to Ji Mingxia, he turned around and ran away.

It was not the first time Ji Mingxia had seen such expressions from outsiders.

Yesterday he took the bus back to Jiaoye Village. When the bus stopped, the driver looked at him in the same way.

At that time, Ji Mingxia didn't understand what was going on in the village, but seeing the courier avoiding him now, Ji Mingxia understood very well.

After the courier walked away, Ji Mingxia looked down.

This is seafood purchased online. The surface of the box was sealed with transparent glue by the merchant, so the contents inside could not be seen. In addition, there were several RMB notes under the box.

This box of seafood is for Aunt Cheng, so the coins are naturally hers too.

When it came to money, Ji Mingxia couldn't rummage through it, so he carried the suitcase and walked towards Aunt Cheng's house.

When I came to the door of Aunt Cheng's house, if Ji Mingxia visited in normal times, he would definitely knock on the door.

But considering the situation of ghosts knocking on the door in the village, polite knocking has already become synonymous with horror in Jiaoye Village.

When Ji Mingxia was hesitating how to contact Aunt Cheng, at this moment, Aunt Cheng's courtyard door opened, and Aunt Cheng who was about to go out came out of the house.

When she saw Ji Mingxia standing outside the door, Aunt Cheng froze for a moment: "You are..."

Ji Mingxia didn't expect that Aunt Cheng didn't know him. Could it be that Yuanshen didn't deal with the people in the village all these years back?

But thinking of the stiff relationship between Yuanshang and grandma, he didn't even want to go home, and it was normal that he didn't know the villagers.

Ji Mingxia said politely, "Aunt Cheng, I'm Mingxia."

"Ming Xia?" Aunt Cheng was a little surprised. She glanced up and down at Ji Ming Xia. A rare smile appeared on her withered and aging face. Are you in college?"

"Just finished the college entrance examination." Ji Mingxia said.

"I just finished the exam, that's good, I should go out more to relax, play for a few months and then go to college, why did I go back to the village." Aunt Cheng said.

Ji Mingxia felt that what she said seemed a little strange, but he couldn't find anything wrong at the moment.

He said: "Grandma is here, I have to come back, otherwise the old man will be angry."

Ji Mingxia's words were just casual, and they are very common household expressions.

But what he didn't expect was that Aunt Cheng frowned slightly after he finished speaking.

However, this expression was only for a moment. Seeing Ji Mingxia looking at her inexplicably, Aunt Cheng said: "Auntie, are you here for something?"

Ji Mingxia raised the box in his hand in front of Aunt Cheng: "I just met Zhou Tao on the road, and their family has moved away. It's too late to deliver seafood to you. Let me help you."

After hearing this, Aunt Cheng's expression changed drastically. She looked at the seafood foam box in front of her, almost took a step back, and looked at Ji Mingxia in shock: "What did you say?"

Ji Mingxia saw that Auntie Cheng really reacted. He didn't know where in his sentence he had stimulated Auntie Cheng, so he repeated that sentence again.

While talking, Ji Mingxia carefully observed Aunt Cheng's expression.

He thought that Aunt Cheng was so surprised when she heard that Zhou Tao had moved away, and Ji Mingxia wanted to find some clues from Aunt Cheng.

It turned out that it was strange that Aunt Cheng's face changed drastically after hearing the last sentence.

Zhou Tao asked Ji Mingxia to help deliver the goods, and Ji Mingxia also felt very strange.

But when he heard him say that if Ji Mingxia didn't send it, he would come back to deliver it in person at night, Ji Mingxia thought about it, and considering the safety of the village, he finally decided to agree.

When the courier handed over the foam box to him, he was also prepared to be tricky. Seeing that there was no flaw in the appearance of the foam box, Ji Mingxia even guessed that there was something wrong with the seafood in the foam box?

But this is not his property after all, Ji Mingxia can't disassemble it without authorization before handing it over to Aunt Cheng.

He originally planned to wait until Auntie Cheng got the items, and based on Auntie Cheng's reaction, maybe they could open the foam box on the spot.

Unexpectedly, the box hadn't been opened yet, just listening to his words, Aunt Cheng seemed to understand something, she even took a step back unconsciously, as if Ji Mingxia had done something terrible!

"Aunt Cheng, is there a question?" Ji Mingxia couldn't help asking.

Aunt Cheng lowered her head and refused to say anything.

Ji Mingxia couldn't see her expression, and Aunt Cheng couldn't guess what was going on in her heart. He was about to try to make a routine, but at this moment, Aunt Cheng said, "Hurry up and go back...ask your grandma."

After finishing speaking, Aunt Cheng took the foam box and quickly entered the house as if she had seen a ghost.

The door closed with a "click", and after Aunt Cheng entered the room, there was no movement, only Ji Mingxia was left standing outside the door.

Ji Mingxia's heart was shocked.

He was the one who saw Zhou Tao, and he was the one who delivered the goods. What does all this have to do with grandma?

Could it be that grandma is in danger?

This thought flashed by quickly, Ji Mingxia lost his sense of control on the spot, turned around and ran towards the house almost without hesitation.

The dim sunset shrouded the entire Jiaoye Village, and the village road was quiet, only the sound of Ji Mingxia's footsteps echoed constantly.

Aunt Cheng's house was not far from Grandma Ji's house, and there was no one on this road, so Ji Mingxia was unimpeded and returned to Grandma Ji's house within a short while.

At this time, the sun was setting, the street lights were on, and the entire Jiaoye Village entered the night time.

Ji Mingxia hurried to the door of the house and stopped. He was panting slightly, and was about to open the door to enter. When his fingers were about to touch the door lock, a picture flashed through his mind. Ji Mingxia suddenly remembered something, and the movements of his hands stopped unconsciously. .

In this instant, from returning to Jiaoye Village to this moment, every detail of the past 20 hours or so was played back in Ji Mingxia's mind.

Ji Mingxia looked at the gate of the Ji family in front of him at this moment, as if he suddenly figured out something.

As soon as he stopped opening the door, not only did he not unlock the lock and walk in, but he let it go completely, and he took a step back.

The moment Ji Mingxia retreated, a black shadow suddenly appeared under the hollowed-out iron gate of Ji's house, in the courtyard at this moment.

The sound of knocking on the door came from the Ji family courtyard.

Immediately afterwards, the originally closed door opened automatically from the inside.

The inside of Ji's house was pitch black, with no lights, and Grandma Ji could not be seen.

Bursts of gloomy coolness came from inside, making Ji Mingxia's whole body icy cold, only the ring on his hand, under such a cold breath, brought a bit of warmth.

A familiar voice came faintly from the courtyard, and drifted into Ji Mingxia's ears intermittently: "Mingxia, we meet again."

The owner of the voice was none other than Zhou Tao who had just left in the evening!

He left with great fanfare in front of the whole village, but within a short while, not only returned to Jiaoye Village, but even sneaked into Ji's house!

Hearing his voice, Ji Mingxia's face suddenly sank, but thinking of Grandma Ji, he still forced himself to calm down, pulled the corner of his mouth and showed a smirk, gritted his teeth and said, "Zhou Tao, didn't you go to the hospital for cancer treatment? It's so late, are you still at my house?"

"I need treatment, but when did I say that I'm going to the hospital..." Zhou Tao's voice was intermittent, as if it came from another world.

"What you have is cancer. Don't you want to go to the hospital for chemotherapy? Only science can save you, and everything else is illusion." Ji Mingxia said while trying to observe the surroundings, trying to find opportunities.

However, Zhou Tao didn't give him time anymore. Instead of answering Ji Mingxia's question, he said to Ji Mingxia: "Mingxia, this is your home, won't you come back?"

Ji Mingxia looked at the black door, like a beast that could swallow him at any time.

Zhou Tao urged: "We and your grandma are waiting for you here."

As he spoke, his voice was far and near, and there was a bit of a weird smile.

In Ji Mingxia's heart, the Ji family, which made him feel at ease the most, seemed to have turned into a gloomy ghost cave at this moment, and it looked thousands of times more terrifying than that small supermarket.

But Ji Mingxia couldn't back down.

Grandma Ji was still inside, and Zhou Tao was coming for him.

Thinking of this, Ji Mingxia restrained his shortness of breath, tried his best to control his emotions, and finally took a step and walked in.
